The force acting parallel to the wind direction

Reference no: EM13538109

A 30-mph wind blows at an angle of 8 degrees to the plane of a signboard that is 12ft long by 2 ft wide. Using CL=0.52 and CD=0.09 Calculate the force acting on the signboard at right angles to the wind direction and the force acting parallel to the wind direction. Assume air at 60 degrees F
